“Although the property has amazing views the furnishings and in particular the beds and the bed settee are getting past their sell by date.”

The chairs up to the breakfast counter are awkward to use for young and old alike.

We are pleased to hear that you appreciated the wonderful views from the apartment but sorry to hear that you felt that the furnishing’s were tired and in need of replacement. The whole apartment has been refurbished within the last three years from top to bottom to a high standard and we have consistently received glowing compliments about it. The beds are the only outstanding things to be replaced and this will be done over the winter period. We hope that you enjoyed your stay in Salcombe. Property Owner

“We loved this apartment, with its simple, clean and airy feel.”

The best view in Salcombe from the balcony and the patio doors from both sea facing rooms makes this really special. The kitchen and bathroom are well equipped and we had all we needed for our stay. Loved to sit at the breakfast bar looking out into the harbour. Ideal whatever the weather this apartment has it all. The only thing is the sofa isn’t the best and not comfortable to sit on - fine to lay across but the cushions push you forwards. Everything else we loved.

“Had a wonderful stay at 32 Salcombe, we cancelled a holiday to Puerto Pollensa, Majorca as my husband had been unwell and were very disappointed but on arrival at the apartment in Salcombe we were overwhelmed with the fabulous view from the balcony and the so pleased with the lovely apartment which was well equipped and very comfortable, added bonus the weather was great, all in all a really lovely holiday, the view from the balcony is people watching on another level!”

- Angela, June 2023

We were so pleased to hear that you had such a wonderful stay in our apartment. Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a lovely review. We never tire of the view from the balcony ourselves, there’s always something to watch whatever the weather and time of year! David and Janet Property Owner

“We have been staying in The Salcombe for over 10 years and love it.”

The swimming pool and boat mooring are unique in The Salcombe. Last year we met the owners of number 32 in the swimming pool who seemed lovely and told us they had just bought number 32 and would be renovating it. We booked to stay there for the following May half term (last week). The apartment was beautifully decorated. Ordinarily we stay in a 2 bedroom apartment and had some reservations about this being a one bedroom but we didn’t need to have. The sofa bed was very comfortable, as were the single beds that our children slept on and there was ample storage in the bedroom and hall drawers for a family of 4’s clothes, bags and beach items (we bought a lot of clothes/items for the week and I like everything to be put away and tidy!) The bathroom was perfect - very modern with a large heated radiator to dry our beachwear. The kitchen was very well equipped, and best of all the fridge was big enough for a family of 4. Nice touches such as both a large cafetière but also one for an individual person, which I liked being the only coffee drinker. The only additional thing I would have liked would have been some storage in a cupboard for food. We ate out 4 times but still there wasn’t space in the cupboards to store snacks and non-fridge food. Small point as everything else was perfect. It is a beautiful and well thought out apartment, with wonderful views - perfect for a relaxing holiday.

- Kathryn, May 2022

Thank you for your lovely feedback. We are really pleased to hear you had a relaxing holiday and loved the apartment. We will be sure to send it on to the owner. We do hope to welcome you back to the area soon. Property Owner

“Million dollar dawn with Seagull chorus was the draw - as usual (stayed before) Very relaxing.”

Good stay. Nice layout. New owners are in process of updating, which is... kinda good in one way - but as escapees from planet perfection, it's not important to us. And as Californian's, we warmed to the old homely feel, where we weren't paranoid about bits & bobs dropping on the carpet/sofa. OK, it's still someone-else's home. Still, we don't represent mainstream.

- Vernon, November 2021

Thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback. We were really pleased to welcome you back to number 32 and that you were able to make the apartment comfortable for your stay. We have passed on your comments to the owners and look forward to welcoming you back upon your return. Property Owner

“We have stayed in 32 the Salcombe on many an occasion and have always felt at home and comfortable but the new owners have started to make it even more comfortable and we say thank you for that.”

The kitchen was well equipped but the only thing we couldn’t find was a salt and pepper set but hey that was only a little thing to worry about. Thank you for once again giving us a lovely holiday

- Keith, May 2021

Many thanks for leaving us your feedback. We were really pleased to read that you’ve had a very enjoyable stay here at number 32 and have passed on your praises to the owners. We very much look forward to welcoming you back soon. Property Owner

“The worse part of the holiday was having to collect and return the key from the Sykes office in town, July and August to me would be a nightmare There are key boxes at the apartments.”

? My age possibly did not help the situation Apartment was fantastic.

- Dorothy, May 2021

Thank you for leaving us your comments. We are sorry you found the key arrangements an inconvenience, we have passed on your recommendation for a keysafe to the owners. We do hope this did not detract from what is a beautiful week in Salcombe. Property Owner
